Biography
Two young boys who claimed to have seen visions of Jesus, in which he assured them that only the innocence of children could defeat the Saracens, led a crusade of children to the Holy Lands. Unfortunately, most of the pilgrims were either lost at sea to storms and rocks, or captured by pirates and slavers.
